Chapter 212: Sacrifice of the Snow Moth

Squeak~Ah~

The old door was opened, and the cold air rushed in. The temperature in the room was even a little colder than outside.

Mingzheng frowned. This was obviously not normal.

At this time, the Snow Swallow had climbed down from Mingzheng's shoulder and hid behind Mingzheng timidly.

Mingzheng frowned, thought about it and let Squirtle out. It was able to use waveguides and had extremely sharp perception.

"Jenny!"

"Well, stay with me, don't act rashly."

Squirtle nodded, and a little blue light appeared in his clear eyes. He soon "saw" something in the room.

"Jenny~Jenny~"

"In there?"

Mingzheng was holding another Poké Ball in his hand, and then slowly walked in the direction indicated by Squirtle's eyes.

The bone-piercing coldness gradually rose. Mingzheng turned his head to look at the somewhat fearful Snow Swallow, and his heart became more confused.

If it was a member of the same species, how could the Snow Swallowing Worm react like this?

Holding the door handle, Ming Zheng shrank subconsciously as he felt a bone-chilling chill.

But he made up his mind and twisted the handle hard to push the door open. There was a continuous clicking sound, as if ice cubes were being crushed.

The extreme chill spread, and Ming Zheng's pores stood up, and even the breath he exhaled was instantly frozen into ice crystals.

It's too cold!!!

Ming Zheng covered his face for a long time before he had time to observe the situation in the room.

The roof, walls, and ground were all covered with ice crystals at this time, and on the ground in the middle of the room, an oval white worm pupa was slightly flashing with an ice-blue light, and the chill was emanating from the worm pupa.

Ming Zheng was surprised. Although he had never seen the Snow Swallowing Worm's elf egg, it was obviously impossible to be so strange.

It was more like a certain ice elf temporarily sealed itself in it to recover from its injuries.

But this was just a guess. Ming Zheng turned his head to look at the Snow Swallowing Worm and wanted to ask carefully.

But seeing that the Snow Swallow was still hiding behind him, its small body was even trembling slightly, Mingzheng knew that he could not ask anything.

Mingzheng walked slowly into the room, and the sound of ice crystals breaking under his feet was all cracking.

The closer he got to the pupa, the lower the temperature.

Mingzheng tried to use his superpowers to sense whether there was a snow moth inside, but even the superpowers that spread out felt frozen.

Beside him, Squirtle was also shivering from the cold, and it seemed that the power of waveguide was the same.

The elves in the pupa were definitely not ordinary!

But in the end, Mingzheng still did not think of breaking the pupa open and exploring the situation inside.

He just left the photos and prepared to hand over the problem to Dr. Yamanashi.

He slowly retreated backwards, and the Snow Swallow behind him seemed to have had enough, and ran out immediately.

At this moment, the ice-blue pupa glowed white, and a thin crack appeared above the pupa, and a snow-white elf slowly drilled out of it.

The translucent wings are elegantly streamlined, with long tassels, blue eyes shining like gems, white fluff on the chest makes it more noble, and the feather-like antennae above the eyebrows are very agile.

Edelweiss moth, a beautiful elf with a perfect combination of nobility and aloofness, sprinkles ice crystal scale powder when waving its wings, adding a sense of fantasy.

But even such a beautiful elf has a huge wound on its wings, from the upper right to the lower left, completely cutting a pair of wings into four petals.

"嘤嘤~"

With an ethereal and crisp sound, the Edelweiss moth slowly lay on the pupa, as if flying was still very difficult for it.

After the Edelweiss moth got out of the pupa, its eyes stayed on the Snow Swallowing Worm.

Most of the cold air released by the Edelweiss moth also dissipated, which made the Snow Swallowing Worm relax a lot, and then looked at the Edelweiss moth.

What kind of eyes do both sides have?

The snow moth was kind, regretful, distressed, angry...

The snow swallower was confused, puzzled, and a little attached.

Mingzheng quietly stepped aside, but he didn't expect that this action attracted the attention of the snow moth. The sapphire-like eyes looked at him, and then he exhaled gently.

The next second, some blue ice crystals turned into the shape of wind and drilled into Mingzheng's backpack.

Mingzheng subconsciously stepped back a little, but saw that the snow moth had already started to cry to it.

"You want energy crystals?"

Mingzheng frowned, thought about it, and took out an ice-type high-level energy crystal and handed it over.

But the snow moth shook its head and continued to stare at Mingzheng.

"The top energy crystals are extremely rare, and they are also obtained by my partners and me through hard exploration. If you need treatment, my Squirtle can help you."

"Squirtle!"

Squirtle stood up in response, and the pink wave in his hand flashed, which was the healing wave skill.

"Yingying~"

The snow moth shook its head and stopped forcing it. Instead, it grabbed the high-level energy crystal and glided to the front of the snow swallower with difficulty.

"Tuntun?"

"Yingying~"

The snow moth gently put the high-level energy crystal into its mouth, and then wrapped itself and the snow swallower with its broken wings.

The next second, an ice-blue light flashed from the translucent wings, and a stream of pure energy emanated from the snow moth's body, and then poured into the snow swallower's body.

"Tun!!!"

The snow swallower twisted restlessly, and the powerful energy made it very uncomfortable.

But it was only four scratched wings that easily stopped the snow swallower who wanted to escape.

Mingzheng stood in the corner with Squirtle and did not intervene.

Both he and Squirtle could feel that the snow moth had no ill will towards the snow swallower, and even from the look in their eyes just now, the two sides were very likely to be related by blood.

Is this... energy infusion? Or blood inheritance?

In any case, the weak snow swallower was getting stronger at a very fast speed at this moment, and its strength had jumped from the mediocre initial level to the senior level.

Such a scene completely violated the contents of all the training manuals that Mingzheng had read.

But the world is so big, how can humans be sure that they know everything about the treasure?

The process did not last long. When the ice-blue light completely dissipated, the snow swallower had reached the elite primary level. The rapid improvement in strength was simply against common sense.

However, the snow moth became old and withered in just a few minutes. Its wings curled like dead leaves, the white fluff on its chest completely fell off, and even its sapphire-blue glasses became turbid.

Most importantly, the breath of the snow moth became extremely weak, just like Shaymi at the beginning, and it seemed that it would not be surprising if it died directly in the next second.

"Tuntun!"

The Snow Swallow suddenly woke up and kept feeding the Snow Moth, trying to help it up.

But the Snow Moth obviously didn't have the strength to stand up, and was even retched by the suddenly powerful Snow Swallow.

"Let me do it! Squirtle Healing Wave!"

Mingzheng stepped forward and gently helped the Snow Moth up, while slowly releasing the healing wave to nourish the Snow Moth's already dried body.

"嘤~嘤嘤嘤~~"

As if it was a last breath, the Snow Moth suddenly spoke a few words fluently.

Then he looked at Mingzheng, then at the Snow Swallow, and then he closed his eyes completely with relief.

"Tuntun!!"
